Windows 10 File Explorer Search crashing after 6/14/2016 Updates
Windows 10 Files Explorer (Search App) began crashing during most file searches after the installation
of Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3149135) and other updates on 6/14/2016
By crashing, I mean after selecting a folder and typing in a word/string to search, "working on it ..." pops up
then in a few seconds, the active File Explorer Window totally disappears; the Desktop Icons disappear then slowly
re-populate; the Taskbar items were also cleared but return about 15-20 seconds later.
I cannot find a common factor for those that will/won't crash.
I ran SFC /SCANNOW and there were not validation errors.
In addition, I rebuilt the Search Index and cleared the Search history - the issue continued.
I did not have this issue the day before the update as Windows 10 has been very stable for the last 4-6 months.
Any thoughts? TIA
Dennis
